Well one box at a time I am getting unpacked. I am determined to have a nice organized home when I am done. My biggest issue that I have run into is that I have at least 5 boxes of books and only one bookshelf. lol I do however have a big closet in the master bedroom. So here is my plan. I will put the books I am using for this years school in a plastic bin that I have along with my art supplies and pencils and just stuff you would use for school. So I will have a school in a box. lol This will be somewhat easier because allot of Tristan's work will be on the computer next year. So most of it will be 1st grade things for Lilly and preschool things for Olivia. I have put the books that I am reading and my prayer journal and my to do notebook will be in a basket next to my bed(actually they already are) and then I also have a place to put the remote for my TV in our room so it doesn't get lost. lol That should at least eliminate some of the books. Allot of the rest of them will go on my one bookshelf. Some old books of David's such as his school books he wants to keep will be in the building because I don't know where else to put them right now. But eventually I am going to have to buy more book shelves. Of course as many as I can get will be going in the yard sale. Although it is tough because I HATE to get rid of books. I always feel I can use them someday.
I am open to any other suggestions. What does everyone else who has a small home do with their many books? I know you have them if you are a homeschool family.lol
